Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Having owned and used binoculars most of my life, both from the decks of small pleasure boats and the pilothouses of large commercial ships, I can tell you these represent a tremendous value. With 10X magnification, they would not be ideal as your only set of binoculars on a boat, where sea motion makes anything stronger than about 7X impractical to hold steadily. But on land, at a sporting event or concert, you can really get a closeup with these--clear and crisp. They're incredibly compact, easy to use and for the price...? I may get a couple more pair, for the picnic basket, the glove box of my car, whatever. Unless you're equipping for a night time military operation or something, just get a pair of these!
